Samsung S8 rumours suggest phone will ship with voice assistant made by team behind Apple’s Siri
If true, Samsung's latest smartphone could knock Apple off the top spot
SAMSUNG'S next smartphone could knock Apple fan's socks off if these incredible rumours are true.
Rumours suggests the Samsung S8 will come with an incredibly futuristic feature from the team behind Apple's Siri.
The virtual assistant was created by Viv Labs, the team that created Siri before it was acquired by Apple.
‘Leaked’ pictures of Samsung Galaxy S8 reveal even more of the upcoming smartphone’s amazing new features.
The new won't be announced officially until April, according to sources.
Apple lovers were fuming when Apple unveiled the iPhone 7 in in 2016 without a headphone jack, instead replacing its classic earphones with £159 wireless AirPods.
Despite widespread backlash the phone still sold out, with UK customers desperate to get their hands on one when it was released.
The phone - initially believed to be launched in February at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona - will also ditch the signature home button.
It’s claimed that Samsung S8 will replace the home button with a fingerprint scanner under the screen instead, which will work using pressure-sensitive display technology.
This means that the phone will be able to distinguish between a light tap and deep press – meaning access to more functions just by pressing down harder.
And it might even be able to fold, if a recent Samsung patent is anything to go by.
Samsung fans can also reportedly expect an ‘Edge’ style screen and improved camera, as well as a 4K display.
It's expected to come in two models, one with a 5.1 inch dual-curved display, the other with 5.5 inches.
The company have suffered bad press of late.
The heir to the company is on the most wanted list for his alleged dealings in a corruption scandal that has already seen South Korea's president impeached.
Super-rich business mogul Lee Jae-Yong, the only son of Samsung group chairman Lee Kun-Hee is accused of bribery, embezzlement and perjury.
